ON CHURCHILL DOWNS.
LOUISVILLE, KY, Sept. 21.-The fa-
vOriteS had it all their own way to-day,
passing under the wire first in four out
of the five events. They were Sour
Mash, Insolence, Valuable and Bertha.
The dump of the day was in the third
race, the Belle Meade stakes for two
year-oldS, distance three-quarters of a
mile. Harper's dark, fine-looking Pat
ton was big favorite with the public,
who naturally regarded him as very SUI
perlor to the company he was in, after
his handsome performance in the Blue
Grass stakes Monday at the same dis
lance. He worried himself out at the
post, however, and allowed Ed Mack,
fifteen to one chance. to beat him by
len 9Th and half. The attendance was
not so good as upon the previous days,
though the weather was beautiful. The
track was dusty, the time fair. Before
the first race Col. Clark called the jock
eyS into the judges stand and read the
riot act to them. He told the boys that
whatever the instructions from their
owners, they must ride to win or he
would rule the whole of them off the
track. The result indicated that the
cOlonel's talk had a salutary effect.
Vice Regent, who ran second in the mile
handicap, is full brother of Montana
